pytest plugin for printing summary data as I want it
Opinionated pytest plugin to make output slightly easier to read and errors easy to find and fix.
pytest-pretty's only dependencies are rich and pytest itself.
One-line info on which test has failed while tests are running:
A rich table of failures with both test line number and error line number:
This is extremely useful for navigating to failed tests without having to scroll through the entire test output.
Including time taken for the test run:
pip install -U pytest-pretty
If you're using pytest-pretty (or indeed, just pytest) with GitHub Actions, it's worth adding the following to the top of your workflow .yml
file:
env:
COLUMNS: 120
This will mean the pytest output is wider and easier to use, more importantly, it'll make the error summary table printed by pytest-pretty much easier to read, see this discussion for more details.
pytester_pretty
fixtureThe pytest_pretty
provides pytester_pretty
fixture that work with modified version of output. It is designed to drop in places replacement of pytester
fixture and uses it internaly.
So to use them it is required to set pytest_plugins = "pytester"
